Wait...is he going to get it back? I mean, he did buy it, stolen or not. I don't know how this would work.

Depends on who his money went to.
For example, if Gamestop paid to get that unit, but a thief stole it before it reached gamestop, and sold it to this guy, then no, he probably won't get it back.

Ah, I see. So I guess at best, it'd be up to the feds to get his funds back or maybe he's just out of whatever he paid.

It's stolen property so it doesn't really work out that way. If someone stole my car and sold it to someone else then it's not like they could just keep it whether they spent money or not, theres just a lot legal complications. The Switch console may not even of belonged to Nintendo as it most likely was the property of a retailer who bought it from Nintendo leading to a lot more legal issues. Also we don't even know how legitmate this person is, the whole thing seems kinda sketchy if you ask me.                              

So he can't get the Switch or his money back, damn. That sucks. But I agree, this entire thing did seem too surreal to be so innocent.
